All of my cars have been as good as can be reasonably expected.
I've got a drain pain that holds, I think, 12.5 qts. It even has a little vent. But if you don't tilt the thing a tiny bit so that the corner with the vent is higher, the hole can't keep up with the volume of oil that's coming out of either of our cars and the big "funnel" overflows. That's damn frustrating.
